When Helen saw Sheldon kneeling on the ground and crying, Helen subconsciously took a few steps back as she freed her body from his grasp. After that, she said seriously, “Sheldon, you should understand my personality very well. I brought up a gentleman’s agreement with three clauses to you when I agreed to marry you. Do you remember what it is?”Sheldon lifted his head with flushed red eyes as he nodded slightly and said, “I remember! I remember! I remember every word! Honey, I was really just confused for a moment. Please, I beg you. Please just forgive me this once, okay?”Helen had a stern expression on her face as she said, “Sheldon, I want you to tell me what were those three clauses in our gentleman’s agreement first.”Sheldon felt his heart hurting as he said in a trembling voice, “The first clause of our gentleman’s agreement was that no matter what time or what kind of situation it was, as long as… as long as…”Helen probed, “As long as what?”Sheldon sighed as he said,

Helen asked him, “Sheldon, do you know why I loved Curtis so much back then?”Sheldon was startled at this time.He looked at Helen before he asked in a hoarse voice, “Why?”Helen laughed bitterly before she said in a pained voice, “Back then, when Curtis was about to get married, I also ran and confessed my love for him just like how Yashita confessed her love for you…”“I honestly thought about giving my body to him. I even gave him the same reason as Yashita did…”“At that time, I told him: Curtis, I have already loved you for so many years without getting anything in return at all. Even if you truly do not love me and cannot give me the end result that I am hoping for, don’t leave me with any last regrets…”“I even said: Curtis, for a woman, the most precious thing is her chastity. The reason why chastity is the most precious and valuable thing to every woman is because every woman would want to leave it for the man she loves the most. As for me, I hope that I can leave my ch

When Sheldon saw Helen leaving so determinedly without even looking back, Sheldon felt that his heart was hurting so much to the point that he was already suffocating.He had already known for a long time that Helen did not love him at all.He also knew that the person that Helen had always loved deeply in her heart was none other than Curtis.However, sometimes, Helen seriously underestimated Sheldon’s skills.Although it seemed as though he had never interfered with Helen’s privacy on the surface, in truth, he knew everything about Helen’s behavior in secret.Many years ago, after the WiFi networking function became available on cell phones, Sheldon had hired some top internet hackers to closely monitor the WiFi network in his house.Sheldon could use the tools provided by the hackers to carry out comprehensive monitoring on the times when Helen’s cell phone was connected to the WiFi, the software applications that she used, and also the websites that she had visited after conn

As soon as he came in, he realized that his father and six of his younger siblings were all very flustered inside the study room.This made Sheldon feel a little uncomfortable and surprised.In his impression, his father had always been very calm and composed throughout all these years. He had never been afraid of any difficulties, and he had always remained very calm even in the face of sudden change. So, why was he so flustered and in a state of panic today?Moreover, Sheldon felt that his younger siblings around him were all looking at him with a very strange look in their eyes at this time.There was a look of nervousness, fearfulness, sympathy, and even compassion in their eyes.So, Sheldon asked nervously, “Dad, what happened exactly?”Cadfan raised his head to look at Sheldon, and he asked with a guilty conscience, “Didn’t you see the news notification on your cell phone?”Sheldon looked down at his pajamas before he said embarrassedly, “What notification? I was taking a

At this moment, Sheldon still could not understand what kind of major incident had happened. Hence, he looked at Lord Schulz and asked, “Dad, what has happened?” Sighing lightly, Lord Schulz lamented, “Sigh… it’s Rosalie…” Sheldon hurriedly asked, “Have you found Rosalie’s whereabouts?” Lord Schulz shook his head and replied, “Not yet. Sheldon... about Rosalie, I would like to apologize to you. I hope you can forgive me...” Sheldon never thought his dad would ask him for forgiveness. He immediately replied, “Dad, what did you do? If there’s anything, just say it. If Rosalie couldn’t be rescued in the end, I won’t blame you…” Sheldon still felt that Lord Schulz had put in a lot of effort in rescuing Rosalie. However, the difficulty level of this matter was indeed very high. Moreover, it had happened in Japan. The Schulz family could not do much. Thus, it was understandable if, during the process of rescuing, accidents happened, which had made the rescue

Lord Schulz coldly said, “Don’t forget, she’s just an illegitimate daughter with a shady background!” Sheldon growled, “What’s wrong with an illegitimate daughter? An illegitimate daughter is still my daughter!” Lord Schulz was equally angry and confronted him, “What?! Are you disputing my decision?! Are you sure you want to get even after all these things?” Grinding his teeth, Sheldon replied, “It’s because of what you did that my own daughter is lost, and my wife also wants a divorce!” Lord Schulz coldly uttered, “Don’t ever think that I was the one who harmed Rosalie. It was actually you who harmed her!” “If not for you ordering her to murder the Matsumoto family, why would the Japanese government hate her guts?” “Your own daughter became Japan’s top felon, all because she carried out your order!” “Judging from all the crimes she had committed, based on the Japanese law, she is doomed!” “Hence, you must remember, you’re the one who harmed her!

Faced with his father’s rebuke, Sheldon replied with an anguished look, “Dad, shouldn't relationships be like this? There will always be one party that is more devoted than the other. Moreover, when Helen was with me, she was realistic and wasn’t impetuous. Comparatively, I’ve disappointed her…” With a hint of impatience on his face, Cadfan waved his hand and said, “Let’s not talk about Helen. Now isn’t the right time to discuss your daughter and your relationships. The most important thing to do now is to plan on how to face the upcoming crisis!” “Yes, Big Brother!” Steven uttered with a depressed expression, “We’re really messed up now. The Japanese are raging at the Schulz family, and the Oskians also consider us to be heartless. On the internet, there’s a crusade against us. When the stock market opens tomorrow, those shares of listed companies will surely plunge. By that time, our losses will be unmeasurable!” Sebastian also blurted out, “Also, even our own people now wo
The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 2228
Sheldon forced himself to temporarily put the issues related to Helen and Rosalie at the back of his mind, and he asked, “Dad, have you estimated the losses we’ll suffer as a result of this matter?" Cadfan sighed, “It doesn’t look good. Besides Oskia, Japan is the largest market in Asia. Based on this fact, it’s an immeasurable loss for the Schulz family now and in the future!” “Moreover, Japanese companies have had overseas arrangements for many years. Their influence is strong. No matter if it's the US or European markets, they have participated in depth. If the Japanese companies were to snipe the Schulz family overseas, our future overseas development will be greatly affected!” Steven hurriedly asked, “Dad, can’t we find a way to salvage the relationship with the Japanese government?” “Salvage?!” Cadfan smiled bitterly, “How? If we can find Rosalie and return her to the Japanese judiciary, we could at least salvage a bit. But now, Rosalie’s whereabouts are unkno

"Alright!" Trippy was at once fawning, tagging along behind Raymond like a little child.Around thirty people were waiting in front of Treasure Measure by now. The collectors came in twos or threes, and all ten numbers had since been taken.Before Raymond arrived, he had a brief look at the collectors' faces through the security cameras before walking over, and he was really relieved to see no familiar faces.Having traded Oskian antiques for years abroad, it was only natural that he was acquainted with some of the elite collectors in the country.He also knew that they were especially demanding with the quality of their collection and wanted almost flawless items. As such, the bronze sculpture which had been completely lost wouldn't interest them.Still, he was also a little concerned that amongst the elite collectors he knew, there might be some who were losing money and losing purchasing power in turn. If they happened to take an interest in the bronze sculpture on top of that,

Trippy grinned. "I mean, just look at my stall—ain't no way I'm getting any business here. Why not let me check out this item of yours? And see how interested they are? I'm really interested in learning and upping my game."Then, as if worried that Raymond would refuse, he quickly added, "Don't worry—I promise to stay in a corner and just watch."Still, Raymond could guess right then that someone must have sent Trippy to spy on him.It didn't matter whether it was Mick, Jacob, or Zachary either—they were all in this plot together, and one knowing meant all three knowing.Trippy was a gossiper in nature. If he was allowed to witness the whole process, everyone down Antique Street would definitely know before long.In fact, he could use someone like that right now, and Trippy had come straight to his doorstep.With that in mind, Raymond smiled, "Come join me if you're interested. It's not like there's anything to hide…"Pausing, he then warned Trippy, "But since you're going in my

After watching Mick's video, Jasmine's opinion of the man improved considerably.She was actually well aware that the decline of Vintage Deluxe was mostly due to Mick's incompetence.However, as Jasmine was now managing a billion-dollar company, she couldn't spare any time to ask many questions about Vintage Deluxe's performance. In her opinion, as long as Vintage Deluxe didn't lose too much money or ruin the reputation they had worked so hard to build, she wasn't interested in a regime change.It was the same mindset as Marianne Long, who begged her father to keep that lane full of food stalls in Hong Kong over sentiment.As such, seeing that Mick actually had some skill pleased her considerably.She couldn't resist checking out the comments of the video too.She saw that many were praising the manager of Vintage Deluxe for taking a tough stand against the scammer as well as how Vintage Deluxe's reputation was long-standing and without comparison.She soon noticed Jacob's comme

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo

Seeing that Mick had a favor to ask, Trippy was naturally eager to seize the opportunity to get in his good graces."Don't worry, Mr. Crane!" He promptly replied. "Just leave it to me!"Returning to Treasure Measure, he went up to the first man who had come and said, "Hey, brother… Did you come to buy the bronze sculpture from Mr. Cole?"The man asked warily, "You know about the bronze sculpture?""Of course!" Trippy grinned. "I know all too well—it's actually famous here in Aurous Hill."Whipping out his phone, he played the short video that Mick had spent five grand promoting, saying, "Here—check this out!"Curious, the man took the phone and watched the video solemnly.The other latecomer soon hurried over as well and stared fixedly at the screen too.They watched as Bill entered a room with the bronze sculpture with Mick, the latter who checked it out and started commenting on it.The first man exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, it really is that bronze sculpture."The second ma

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A
